China hasn't imported liquefied natural gas from the United States since early February, as the tariff war hit energy trade and could have long-term consequences for U.S. LNG export contracts.
China just ended US LNG imports. Those imports only represented 3% of the LNG actually going into China BUT Chinese companies "accounted for 91% of worldwide purchases of LNG on long-term contracts." So all eyes on Europe. Reminder: LNG = climate wrecking ball www.nytimes.com/2025/04/18/b ...

It's okay though. We will surely makeup the shortfall in the China market, 15% of global GDP, with the Indonesia market which makes up... checks notes... 1.3% of the global economy.
Indonesia has become the latest country to agree to boost imports of U.S. goods to avoid crippling tariffs for its exports.
